why do you guys waste your time on this stuff? who cares what Detroit lions bloggers think? He's just another random.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Biggest strength: Justin Fields
Right now, with Lamar Jackson sidelined due to injury, Fields is the most exciting player to watch in the NFL. His ability to turn any play into a touchdown with his legs is something Lions fans are all too familiar with from their last meeting.
The running quarterback Any quarterback with a set of legs has presented a huge problem for Detroit’s defense, and after the Lions abysmal performance against the run in Carolina, stopping the Bears ground game, starting with Fields, is going to be the biggest key for the Lions in this game.
Biggest weakness: Defense
At first, I had this narrowed down to the run defense itself, but there’s nothing going right for the Bears on this side of the ball at all. They don’t pressure the quarterback, they’ve lost key players in the secondary, they rank 30th in pass yards per attempt (7.7), and they have the fewest passes defended in the NFL (47). Chicago is a football team that won’t stop you on defense, so it’s up to your team to keep pace with Fields and the Bears offense in a shootout.
There is a lot of sense in there sprinkled with some laziness. The writer makes more sense than some on this board. So dismissive ...
